Question 10 of 10

Ask the patient directly about questions in the health history.

questions in the health history.
Nurses must consider developmental stages when caring for
pediatric patients. At the age of 12, children are old enough to
engage in a conversation and report a part of their health
information. Parents can be included as a part of the
conversation for confirmation and accuracy, yet developing a
trusting relationship with the patient is best accomplished by
including him or her directly into the conversation about his or
her care.
